Vespa
-
Vespa Project is a striking subtropical retreat that masterfully balances privacy, openness, and connection to nature. Designed as a sanctuary for a young family, the residence blends raw concrete, dark timber, and lush greenery to create an industrial-inspired yet warm living environment.
-
A monolithic western facade shields the home from the afternoon sun, while a floating subtropical roof and cascading gardens provide additional protection and visual softness.
-
The design seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor spaces, natural light & ventilation, fostering effortless subtropical living which is designed to occupy the edges, connecting seamlessly with the landscape.
-
Private internal spaces are intentionally designed to contrast, offering serene retreats that balance the open, outward-facing aspects of the home.
-
At its core, Vespa Project is a responsive, adaptable home—designed to meet the evolving needs of its occupants while serving as a sanctuary that blurs the boundaries between built form and its intensified subtropical setting.
